5.
His colosal body clasped by creepers, The very wish-yielding tree for the myriod liberables, And His lotus-like feet adored by a host of chief gods, Before that Lord Gommatesha ever I kneel !
He is nude and immune from fear ! Of pure mind He has no liking for raiment ! And quite unmoved by the coiling serpents, Before that Lord Gommatesha ever I kneel !
7.
With pure vision and not looking at any quarter, His basic blemish banished, lure of weal vanquished And His combat with Bharata vonverted to aversion, Before that Lord Gommatesha ever I kneel !
8.
Unfettered by possessions all money and mansion, Equipped with equanimity quelling Pride and Greed, And fasting far for full twelve months, Before that Lord Gommatesha ever I kneel !
